\"The story of APG began in 1975 with an unlikely meeting with Alain Pouillon Guibert during our military service. Despite our different backgrounds in the world of sound, we were called to the Dakar theatre to design 20 loudspeakers. This first experience marked the start of a passionate adventure: first with the manufacture of hi-fi loudspeakers for our friends, then with sound systems for discotheques.<\/p>

APG Engineering was officially founded in 1978, focusing on the design of loudspeakers for discotheques, mobile discos and sound systems. In 1982, the company created emblematic loudspeakers such as the Mobile 2, which became a benchmark in France. The brand also became an official supplier to major institutions such as Radio France and Canal+. The quality of our products quickly established APG as one of France's most promising manufacturers. In Paris, from 1978 to 1986, we developed the brand and worked with Audax, before APG became part of Harman France.<\/span><\/p>

Over the years, APG's reputation has grown, notably through the integration of SCV Audio.<\/span><\/p>

In 2004, I bought APG to give it back its independence and a new dynamic, accompanied by two employees. In 2016, R\u00e9gis Cazin took over the management of the company and continues to carry on the legacy of APG, whose reputation was built on innovation and acoustic excellence. Even today, I still enjoy being an integral part of the brand's history and development.\"<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
